The first time they spoke, their eyes met, they laughed sparks flew and a flame was lit.

Passion

Love

From the moment they met he had her heart. She tried to move on. Tried to love other people, but she always came back to him. She should've known. He had her heart, and in the end she had his as well. He loved her not just for the things seen on the surface, but what is underneath as well. He love her even though she was broken in so many places, and so was he. They were like to oddly shaped puzzle pieces that fit together perfectly.

"Tony you are so…"

"Handsome, funny"

"Loved"

He was so very loved. Loved by everyone. His brother, sister, dad, grandfather, etc. His family, and hers as well. He was so loved, and so is she. Loved by her family. Abby, Gibbs, Ducky, McGee, and even Jimmy. It breaks his heart that can't see that or she chooses not to. She sees it. She saw it on her first day on team Gibbs, and she sees it now. Now she chooses to let them go even if it hurts this time she must. It's like the saying goes if you love someone enough let them go.

Even though it breaks her heart, and his, she chooses to walk away. This time she must do this on her own. This time she must watch her own six.

So now they stand face to face on the airstrip where his plane waits. They don't speak, but their eyes do. He was tired of hiding his feelings for her, so he decides to let them come to the surface. His eyes spoke the words he could not, and she saw it instantly.

That's what made it harder to do what she is about to do. This time she must carry the burden alone. She now must watch her own six. She looked into his eyes, and she could see that even though he knew he still pleaded. He still tried to convince her to come home with him.

He kissed her. One last time. A kiss farewell. A final attempt to convince her to come back home with him.

She kissed him back. One last time, one last kiss. A final farewell to the owner of her heart. She loves him, and he loves her.

If you love someone enough let them go

The flame flickers out…
